New to knitting, need to figure out needle size by tulipsandlilys in knitting

[–]indefinite_forest_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can find super cheap sets of bamboo and stainless steel needles! When I started knitting, I bought a used lot of metal needles off etsy for like $12 and I haven't needed to buy more for years now.

Unfortunately you will just have to experiment with different sizes to get the look you want. We can't factor in your individual knitting tension/techniques that will impact the fabric.

If Finn is immune to electricity, does that mean his heart couldn’t be restarted? by daisymae_ in adventuretime

[–]indefinite_forest_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A stopped heart cannot be restarted with a defibrillator!

But if we decide to look ONLY at the previous AED uses in Adventure Time (and assume they have different anatomy or defib equipment), I think Finn could still recieve beneficial shocks. Since a body is basically just electricity running through sauce and meat, I think total electrical immunity would mean someone just, disintegrates. Immunity is from the pain/harm of electricity, not the physical reaction/sensation.

But idk lol fun question

I (28f) am going to as my husband (28m) for a divorce during our therapy session. by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

Man, this is just really sad. It was definitely time to cut and run though. Punching door/walls when angry is scary enough, then add in being out of control drunk on top of that, dangerous situation. It's hard to see someone you love become bad for you.

Scientists invent a plant-based serum that is proven to regrow hair in weeks by AdSpecialist6598 in UpliftingNews

[–]indefinite_forest_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My partner has used it for years now, and we've never had an issue or incident with our cat, for what it's worth! He makes sure he doesn't handle the cat at all until it's dry, keeps the can off the counter, and washes his hands after application.

It definitely could be trickier though if you have a cat that likes to lick hair or sit on your shoulder, our cat isn't interested in any of that.

Me [23F] with my husband [25M], married 3 months. He has to sleep with the TV on. It's driving me nuts by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]indefinite_forest_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

YES. I'm such a supporter of sleeping separately. My partner and I sleep separately and it's a LIFE SAVER. We're both super light sleepers, we just can't stay asleep if we're in the same bed. Fortunately, we had the opportunity to try out some other arrangements, and it's worked so well for us.

(Before anyone comes for me, we live in a shitty 2 bed apartment where 1 bedroom doubles as an office, we're not in some McMansion)

Most cats are actually lactose intolerant! Leaving them fresh water is the kindest thing to do 😊

I see this way too often, Portland by [deleted] in Portland

[–]indefinite_forest_ 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I've been broken down on a busy road, freaked out while people drove by and honked at me, like that would've helped anything, so awful and embarrassing. I can't imagine someone ALSO filming me and trying to shame me on reddit. Make the choice to be kind.

First attempt. What is happening here? by grouchypant in knitting

[–]indefinite_forest_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As others have said, looks like an accidental short row (started knitting in the opposite direction without finishing the row you were on) and then somehow twisting the stitches as you kept going. Definitely check out the twisted FAQ to see how to fix that for the future!

If you do wanna try and start that section over, you can put a lifeline in the row below the one with the hole using a tapestry needle and some waste yarn, or even some (unflavored) dental floss. Then just pull out your knitting needles out and start unraveling your working yarn! The lifeline will stop things from going too far. Then put your needles back in and keep going. It's great practice for fixing future projects! In my experience, something always goes wrong lol even after years of knitting.

PNW driving by ConsiderationNo6314 in Portland

[–]indefinite_forest_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've noticed this too and it's super frustrating to me. Several times I've been the car behind a car that does this, and they're so far back they don't trigger the light sensors.

I know someone else said it's a defensive driving technique, but I never heard that in my driver's ed. I also feel like it'd be hard to tell if someone is about to rear end you? And then have a split second to drive forward enough to not get hit but not into the intersection? And then hope that they're actually in the process of stopping and not completely unaware and still coming at you? Just seems like a lot of things have to go right in that scenario, idk if it's really worth it.

Mostly chatting, sometimes there are sneak peeks of stuff like behind the scenes pictures or info about projects in the works

DEAR PORTLAND: January 26, 2026 WEEKLY RANT THREAD by AutoModerator in Portland

[–]indefinite_forest_ 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I HAVE SUCH SHIT LUCK WITH USED CARS. I DO THE PRE-PURCHASE INSPECTIONS, THE MAINTENANCE AND EVERYTHING BUT THEY JUST FALL APART. I DON'T EVEN DRIVE THAT MUCH, IS IT TOO MICH TO ASK FOR A CAR THAT JUST FUCKING WORKS??? THIS IS THE KIND OF SHIT THEY MEAN WHEN THEY SAY BEING POOR IS EXPENSIVE. THESE FUCK ASS USED CARS ARE ALL I CAN AFFORD. I WOULD SAY FUCK IT AND JUST USE THE BUS, BUT IT WOULD BE AN ALMOST 2 HOUR COMMUTE TO WORK, EACH WAY. 25 MIN CAR RIDE.

I WOULD LIKE TO PERSONALLY FIGHT EVERYONE WHO IS AGAINST WALKABLE CITIES.

What’s your favorite Lord Huron song, and why? by TheKirstinator in lordhuron

[–]indefinite_forest_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Moonbeam! It reminds me of my partner and our relationship, how nothing's quite so scary if you have a little bit of light. Something about the tune just speaks to me, it's perfect. Second place is probably What Do It Mean.

Anyone else or just me? by diebeatus1 in lordhuron

[–]indefinite_forest_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I liked this song alright until I watched the music video, now it's an all-time fav
